The reappearance of his ex-girlfriend Jean (Katy Davis) threatens to put a damper on Tommy's (Andrew Scott) happy bachelorhood -- but he gets far more than he bargained for when he returns to his apartment to find her dead body. Fearful of becoming a murder suspect, Tommy hatches a plan with pal Noel (Darren Healy) to dispose of the body. But his perfect plan unravels when police dogs track down two corpses in the same place: Jean's, and that of a prominent politician's wife.
